Preface

This reference manual is designed to supplement the 3 + Open MS OS/2 LAN Manager Administrator Guide. Before using this reference, you should feel comfortable using the Microsoft® Operating System/2. You should be able to create and work with files and directories. (Remember that when you operate a server, you can affect files of other users if you make a mistake. Be cautious.) You should have LAN Manager installed on your computer and should be familiar with the LAN Manager product. You should be comfortable either using the LAN Manager Screen or typing LAN Manager commands at the OS/2 prompt.

You should know how to perform basic local area network user tasks such as starting a net station and using a printer. The MS® OS/2 LAN Manager User Guide teaches these basic user concepts.

In addition, you should have already read the MS OS/2 LAN Manager

Administrator Guide which teaches general concepts and procedures related to administering a local area network.

This reference describes only those commands and dialog boxes that are available only to the administrator. Note that commands and dialog boxes also accessible to users are described in the MS OS/2 LAN Manager User Reference.

Chapter 1: About LAN Manager

The 3+Open MS OS/2 LAN Manager provides networking capability to computers running MS OS/2. While LAN Manager is compatible with other PC networking products like 3+, it offers significant new capabilities, including the following features:

• The LAN Manager screen, an easy-to-use, menu-oriented interface.

• Nondedicated servers, servers that may be used simultaneously as netstations.

• An advanced security system that has user-level access control to allow different users different access permissions.

• Full integration with MS OS/2, including support for running advanced distributed local area network applications.

Installation

Before you can 'use 3+Open MS OS/2 LAN Manager, you must install and configure the LAN Manager software to run on your computer. You do this with the LAN Manager setup program called Netsetup.

The setup program does most of the installation work for you. It creates all necessary directories, copies all needed flIes, and makes needed changes to fIles like CONFIG.SYS and LANMAN.INI.

For more information about installing the LAN Manager software on your

computer, see the 3+0pen MS OS/2 LAN Manager Installation and Setup Guide.

Starting LAN Manager

To use a local area network, you must frrst start the LAN Manager software on your computer. LAN 'Manager software includes a number of services that allow you to do certain functions on the local area network. To connect your computer to the local area network as a server, you must start the netstation and server services by typing the following commands:

net start workstation net start server

The NET START WORKSTA nON command identifIes your computer to the local area network so that you can perform networking tasks using either LAN Manager commands or the LAN Manager screen.

(26)

About LAN Manager

1-3

The NET START SERVER command identifies your computer as a server. You can also start these other services on your server:

Messenger

Netpopup

• Alerter

• Netlogon

• Spooler

Netrun

For more information about these services, see the NET START command in Chapter 3: LAN Manager Command Reference, or see the 3 + Open MS OS/2 LAN Manager Administrator Guide.

Logging on to the Local Area Network

When you want to use the local area network, not only must you identify your computer to the local area network, but you must also identify yourself. To identify yourself to the local area network, you must log on using your user name and log- on password. For example, Mary Sullivan, whose user name is marys and whose log-on password is wanderer, uses the following command to log on to the local area network:

net 1ogon marys wanderer

Once you start the netstation service and log on to the local area network, you can use local area network resources and perform other tasks using LAN Manager.

Automatic Startup

LAN Manager recognizes when you need to start a particular service to accomplish a certain task. If you have not started a necessary service before typing a LAN Manager command, LAN Manager starts that service for you. For example, if you want to send a message to another user but haven't started the Messenger service, LAN Manager prompts you to make sure starting the service is all right. Chapter 2:

LAN Manager Screen Reference, and Chapter 3: LAN Manager Command Reference, explain this in more detail.

LAN Manager also performs some log-on tasks for you automatically. LAN Manager remembers your user name and password and uses them when you need to log on to a server. When you request use of a server, LAN Manager

automatically sends along your user name and password for verification. See Chapter 2: LAN Manager Screen Reference, and Chapter 3: LAN Manager Command Reference, for more detail.

Using LAN Manager

Once you have started the netstation and server services, you can perform local area network tasks from your server. There are two ways to perform tasks using LAN Manager:

• By typing LAN Manager commands at the OS/2 prompt.

• By selecting options from menus and dialog boxes contained in the LAN Manager screen.

(28)

About LAN Manager

1-5

The LAN Manager Screen

The LAN Manager screen is a graphical user interface. Menus and dialog boxes provide you with various options from which you can choose without having to remember specific commands. Many people fmd that performing tasks using the LAN Manager screen is easier and more convenient than typing commands.

The LAN Manager screen for the administrator is very similar to the user version of the LAN Manager screen. For infonnation about menus and dialog boxes common to both the user and a~istrative versions of the LAN Manager screen, see the 3 + Open MS OS/2 LAN Manager User Reference. For more infonnation about menus and dialog boxes available only to the administrator, see Chapter 2: LAN Manager Screen Reference.

Also see the 3+0pen MS OS/2 LAN Manager Administrator Guide for infonnation about using the LAN Manager screen to perfonn administrative tasks.

LAN Manager Commands

If you are already familiar with 3+, you may prefer to type LAN Manager

commands at the OS/2 prompt instead of using the menus and dialog bOxes of the LAN Manager screen. LAN Manager commands are similar to the commands used for 3+. And, if you are well-acquainted with the commands and their options, typing LAN Manager commands could be the quicker alternative when you perfonn certain local area network tasks.

To automate local area network tasks, you can place LAN Manager commands in batch files, including your STARTUP.CMD file.

This reference covers the commands available only to administrators. For more infonnation about commands available to both users and administrators, see the 3 + Open MS OS/2 LAN Manager User Reference. For more information about LAN Manager commands for the administrator, see Chapter 3: LAN Manager Command Reference.

Also see the 3 + Open MS OS/2 LAN Manager Administrator Guide for more infonnation about performing administrative tasks using LAN Manager commands.

Getting More Information

LAN Manager provides more information when you need it by displaying information or error messages and providing on-line help for both the LAN Manager screen and LAN Manager commands.

On-Line Help

Whether you are perfonning local area network tasks using the LAN Manager screen or LAN Manager commands, you can get additional information to help you with what you are doing. When you are working in the LAN Manager screen, you can press [Fl] to get context-sensitive help. This means, for example, if you are working in the Device Status dialog box and press [Fl], information about using that particular dialog box is displayed. This facility also includes an index from which you can choose topics of interest to you, including general information about how to use menus and dialog boxes.

LAN Manager also provides a special help command to assist you in using LAN Manager commands. To get information about using a particular LAN Manager command, type NET HELP followed by the command name. If the command begins with the word net, type NET HELP followed only by the second word of the command. For example, if you want more information about using the NET USE command, type the following:

net help use
